Kraft Kitchens Tips

For 4 servings, prepare as directed using 1 tub (8 oz.) PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese Spread and doubling all other ingredients.

Safely Thawing Shrimp

It's great to have a bag of frozen shrimp in the freezer for a quick meal. Thaw frozen shrimp in the refrigerator, not at room temperature. Or, place the sealed package in a bowl of cold water and change the water every 10 min. until the shrimp are completely thawed.

This meal was excellent. I can't believe it was so simple. My whole family loved it!

This an absolutely amazing dish. I love this pasta mostly because it combines all my favorite foods. The recipe makes it seem it's not a good thing to eat, but its actually very good. I make it every year on valentines. It has become a tradition in the family. I also serve it with heart shape cheese breadsticks. i got the recipe from kraft foods also.

Probably will not try to make this again. It seemed like the sauce was lacking something.

Good! My husband and I both thought it had good flavor. I used a little bit of velveeta with the cream cheese and also added crushed garlic and red pepper flakes to the sauce.

Another one that's quick and easy and everyone has enjoyed. I have substituted cut-up chicken tenderloins for the shrimp and that went over well, too. This one has become a regular in our menus.

I grilled the shrimp first instead of letting them cook in the sauce. I also added mushrooms and used herb-flavored cream cheese.

Delicious! The shrimp & spinach make it taste so fresh. (I used canned tomatoes w/ seasoning for speed.) I also used a seasoned cream cheese (chive & onion) for more flavor. We will definitely have this again!

I would use chicken or seafood stock to thin out the sauce. Other than that, it was very good!
